Thanks Greg, it's just the way I have always done it. Doing the roofing now so it might take a bit.

GNA, thanks for stopping in, I used laser cut shingles from Rusty Stumps, they are adhesive backed and have always worked great for me. He has a number of styles and colors. <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.rustystumps.com">www.rustystumps.com</a><!-- w -->

I thought you'd used a plastic casting! :oops: But then, most of my roofs are printed cardboard.

Dave, I don't really care for the plastic roofs, I guess it's just what you are used to.

Nicely done .....love those old buildings for the character they bring to a scene .
To err is human, to blame it on somebody else shows management potential.
